eeePC is awsome

I have had my eeePC for a couple of months now. I have the 7" 4gb model which originally came with Linux. I loaded a light version of XP in place of Linux which I could never master. I also installed an 8gb SD card and then loaded my most important Windows software, (Act, Quickbooks, Skype and OpenOffice), along with some important utilities and tools that make using this device easier.

I take this little thing with me everywhere and as long as I can find an unlocked WIFI signal, can check email, surf the net and even make phone calls to anywhere in the world for a couple of cents a minute.

In my opinion, the eeePC is the most useful piece of technology equipment I have ever owned. And for $350 it was a real bargain. It is not as fast as my regular laptop and the small keyboard results in a lot of imput errors but I can live with both of those minor problems.

The new version will fix the only annoying problem that this device has and that is that the screen is too small to display the full page of most web sites and programs. You have to scroll quite a bit to see the entire page most of the time. On the other hand, it will be larger and heaver so there may be some who prefer to stay with the original version.
